OMM 11: Navigating ‘Non-Toxic’ (Part 1)

Listen Later

Requested by our audience in response to ATC 357, which addresses keeping your cool around non-toxic living, this episode dives into more on clean, non-toxic living, the mental health component and more.

  • Terminology around clean leaving, and what does “toxic” really mean?
  • Fear-including, fear-mongering, click-bait tactics.
  • Advice and input from an attorney (aka John).
  • Body overburdened? The signs:
    • Skin conditions
    • Fatigue more than normal
    • Sick often
    • GI issues
    • Brain fog
    • Headaches
    • Conventional products or additives in foods, etc, may be harmful in the following ways:
      • Endocrine (hormone) disruptors
      • Carcinogens
      • Neurotoxins
      • Chemicals affecting mood, behavior and cognition
      • Reproductive harms… 
      • Whether it’s trying to avoid endocrine disruptors esepcially in kids — as we are seeing a rise in early puberty — or avoiding chemicals that contribute to asthma, eczema, etc, it’s our job and duty to be mindful of these things. But not afraid.
      • Evidence of chronic health issues in adults and children:
        • Asthma and rhinitis in cleaning workers: a systematic review of epidemiological studies. J Asthma.
        • Chemicals inhaled from spray cleaning and disinfection products and their respiratory effects. A comprehensive review.
        • Domestic use of hypochlorite bleach, atopic sensitization, and respiratory symptoms in adults.
        • Postnatal exposure to household disinfectants, infant gut microbiota and subsequent risk of overweight in children.
        • Frequent use of chemical household products is associated with persistent wheezing in pre-school age children.
        • Domestic use of bleach and infections in children: a multicentre cross-sectional study.
        • House cleaning with chlorine bleach and the risks of allergic and respiratory diseases in children.
        • Embrace the idea of less is more. We don’t need so much as we are told…
          • We don’t need sunscreen most of the time (there are exceptions) if we are doing it right with food and our approach to sun exposure.
          • We don’t need to be cleaning our homes with disinfectants every day, or really at all
          • We don’t need 10000 beauty products.
          • Our kids don’t even really need to use soap in the shower most of the time, as it can dry out skin and disrupt their natural oils and biome.
          • Marketing these days will always tell you what you lack and what you need… critical thinking applies here.
